Biocatalytic synthesis, antimicrobial properties and toxicity studies of arginine derivative surfactants
(Springer, 2015-07)
Abstract Two novel arginine-based cationic surfactants were synthesized using as biocatalyst papain, an endopeptidase from Carica papaya latex, adsorbed onto polyamide. The classical substrate N α-benzoyl-arginine ethyl ...
Antifungal activity of arginine-based surfactants
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2019-06)
Amino acid based surfactants constitute an important class of surface active biomolecules showing remarkable biocompatible properties. Antimicrobial activity is one of the most remarkable biological properties of this kind ...
Microvesicle release and micellar attack as the alternative mechanisms involved in the red-blood-cell-membrane solubilization induced by arginine-based surfactants
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-03)
Two novel arginine-based surfactants, Bz-Arg-NHC10 and Bz-Arg-NHC12, were characterized with respect to surface properties and their interaction with human red-blood-cell (HRBC) membranes. The values for critical micellar ...
Interaction of cationic surfactants with DPPC membranes: effect of a novel N α-benzoylated arginine-based compound
(Springer, 2021-04)
Cationic amino acid-based surfactants are known to interact with the lipid bilayer of microorganism resulting in cell death through a disruption of the membrane topology. To elucidate the interaction of a cationic surfactant ...
